Dear fellow Flynn fans,
if you want to dispose of 10 grands without having to sell your granny I have a proposition for you.
After auctioning off the golden bad boy of Hollywood`s head (www.theerrolflynnblog.com…) INVALUABLE has a new offer in store:
An absolutely one of a kind cinema treasure. Errol Flynn’s handprints, footprints and signature in concrete. Originally in the lobby floor of the Rhodes Theater in Chicago. This is one of 30 movie stars from the original 1937 theater opening and were salvaged prior to theater demolition. In overall fair condition. Has been cracked. One crack affects signature of Flynn. Concrete slab measures 18″x18″x2.5″. Rhodes Theater was located in Chicago at the corner of 79th and Rhodes on the south side. It opened Nov 19th, 1937 and was operated by Warner Bros. It was dubbed the Theatre of the Stars. One of its draws were 30 sets of hand and foot prints of Hollywood stars in the lobby floor ala Graumans Chinese Theater. The theater itself was done in Art Moderne Style. It was a single screen 1432 seat auditorium. It was demolished in the 1980s. Prior to demolition, the foot and hand print sets were salvaged.
How I´d love to high five Errol through space, time and cement, if I could only foot the bill!
Enjoy,
